On the site of an ancient Roman army camp in Yorkshire.

Commonplace creatures, crows,

up in the skeleton trees,

their calls echoing

through the cool damp

November morning.

Their calls echoing

when once this

heather-clad turf

was alive with

common Roman footsoldiers.

Their marching echoing

through the cool damp

November morning.
